Night allowances are payable to Clerks up
to Grade 5, senior Library staff, the Yeoman Usher, executive
and clerical staff, and Hansard editorial and reporting
staff appointed or promoted since 1 April 2001. These allowances
are based (a) on the average hours of sitting of the House
over the preceding five years after a threshold time for
each post; and (b) on an hourly rate, fixed for each grade.
A similar scheme operates for Doorkeepers with the added
inclusion of a sum in respect of meal allowance. Those Attendants
who work late shifts are also eligible for a night allowance,
similar to that for Doorkeepers.
